Abstract:
A washer member disposed in a valve housing of an engine is disclosed. The washer member resiliently supports an injector push member via an elastic member and receives a pair of hydraulic lash adjusters for operating an inlet valve and an outlet valve of a cylinder of the engine. The washer member includes a base portion adapted to abut a support member disposed within the valve housing. The support member defines a clearance with the valve housing to movably dispose the pair of hydraulic lash adjusters within the valve housing. The washer member further includes a side portion extending from the base portion. The side portion is configured to define a lateral movement of the elastic member within a tolerance limit. The side portion is further configured to define a rotational movement of the washer member within a tolerance limit.
